            Bug ID: 337347
           Summary: Can't send emails unless network-manager is installed
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 1.12.1
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Mail Dispatcher Agent
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: tiposchi at tiscali.it
                CC: vkrause at kde.org

I have a perfectly working wired connection, handled by the configuration files
of my distribution. Since there is nothing dynamic and the machine is not going
anywhere, there is no need whatsoever to have network-manager.

However, the mail dispatcher agent is not aware that the absence of
network-manager does not imply the absence of a working connection. So it will
refuse to go online and send any emails until network manager is installed.

the algorithm should work a bit like this:


if nm and nm.is_offline
    do nothing
else
    try to send

Reproducible: Always
